requirement of coverage and the proper and reasonable limits for such insurance then to be
carried shall be binding on the parties and such insurance shall be carried with the limits as

occurrence of such damage or destruction, then the amount so collected, or the balance
thereof remaining in the joint account, as the case may be, shall be paid to the Lessor and it
will be at the Lessor's option to terminate the Lease, unless terminated by Lessee within the
last ten (10) years of the Lease as set forth above, and retain such amount as liquidated and

that such leasehold mortgagee(s) make written request and execute, acknowledge and
deliver to the Lessor such new Lease within thirty (30) days from the date of such
termination and such written request and such new Lease is accompanied by payment to
the Lessor of all amounts then due to the Lessor, including reasonable counsel fees, court
costs and disbursements incurred by the Lessor in connection with any such default and
termination as well as in connection with the execution, delivery and recordation of such

of this Lease and prior to the execution and delivery of the new Lease, and any excess of
such net income over the aforesaid sums and expenses to be applied in payment of the Rent
thereafter becoming due under such new Lease.
Any new Lease referred to in this Section 15.01(d) shan not require any
execution, acknowledgement or delivery by the Lessor in order to become effective as
against the Lessee (or any Sublessees) and the Lessee (and any Sublessees) shall be deemed
to have executed, acknowledged and delivered any such new Lease immediately upon
Page 24 of 43
receipt by the Lessor; and such new Lease shall be accompanied by (i) payment to the
Lessor of all amounts then due to the Lessor of which the leasehold mOltgagce(s) shall
theretofore have received written notice; and (ii) an agreement by the leasehold
Inortgagee(s) to pay all other amounts then due to the Lessor of which the leasehold
lTIortgagee(s) shall not theretofore have received \'\Titten notice. In addition, immediately
upon receipt by the Lessor such new Lease, as provided in this Section 15.o1(d), the Lessor,
where appropriate to the circumstances, shall be deemed to have executed, ackno\"Tledged
and delivered to the leasehold mortgagee(s) an assignnlent of all Subleases covering the
Demised Premises which theretofore may have been assigned and transferred to the Lessor
and all Subleases under which Sub lessees shall be required to attorn to the Lessor pursuant
to the terms and conditions of such Subleases or this Lease. Such assignment by the Lessor
shall be deemed to be without recourse as against the Lessor. Within ten (10) days after a
written request therefore by the leasehold mortgagee(s), such assignment or assignments
shall be reduced to a writing in recordable form and executed, acknowledged and delivered
by the Lessor to the leasehold mortgagee(s).
(e) The Initial Lessee's leasehold mortgagee(s) may become the legal
owner and holder of this Lease by foreclosure of its (their ) mortgage(s) or as a result of the
assignment of this Lease in lieu of foreclosure, which shall not require Lessor's consent,
whereupon such leasehold mortgagee(s) shall immediately become and remain liable under
this Lease as provided in Section 15.01(f) below.
(f) In the event that a() leasehold mortgagee(s) shall become the owner or
holder of the Lessee's interest by foreclosure of its (their) mortgagees) or by assignment of
this Lease in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, the term "Initial Lessee," as used in this Lease,
means only the owner or holder of the Lessee's interest for the time period that such
leasehold mortgagee(s) is(are) the owner or holder of the Lessee's interest. Accordingly, in
the event of a sale, assignment or other disposition of the Initial Lessee's interest in this
Lease by the leasehold mortgagee(s), where leasehold mortgagee(s) took title or ownership
of or to any or all of the Initial Lessee's interest in the Lease and/or any portion of the
Demised Premises as a result of foreclosure or acceptance of an assignment in lieu thereof,
the leasehold mortgagee(s) shall be entirely freed and relieved of all covenants and
obligations of performance relating to construction, marketing and transfer to Sublessees
and it shall be deemed and construed, without further agreement between the Lessor and
the mortgagee(s), or between the Lessor, the mortgagee(s) and the mortgagees'
purchaser(s) or assignee(s) at any such sale or upon assignment of Initial Lessee's interest
by the leasehold mortgagee (s), that the purchaser(s) or assignee(s) of Initial Lessee's
interest has assumed and agreed to carry out any and all covenants and obligations of Initial
Lessee, including but not limited to the construction, maintenance and management of the
Affordable Housing Units contemplated herein. In no event shall any protections afforded
the leasehold mortgagee(s) under this Lease be construed to permit eventual use of the
Demised Premises for purposes inconsistent with this Lease or the Affordable Restrictions.
(g) Within ten (10) days after Lessor's receipt of written request by Initial
Lessee or by Initial Lessee's leasehold mortgagee(s), or after receipt of such written request
in the event that upon any sale, assignment or mortgaging of Initial Lessee's interest in this
Lease by Initial Lessee or Initial Lessee's leasehold mortgagee(s), an offset statement shall
Page 25 of 43
be required from the Lessor, and the Lessor agrees to deliver in recordable form a certificate
to any proposed leasehold mortgagee(s), purchaser(s), assignee(s) or to Initial Lessee,
certifying (if such be the case) (i) that this Lease is in full force and effect; (ii) that the
Lessor has no knowledge of any default under this Lease, or if any default exists, specifying
the nature of the default; and (iii) that there are no defenses or offsets which are kno\.vn and
may be asserted by the Lessor against the Lessee with respect to any obligations pursuant to
this Lease.
(h) So long as the Initial Lessee)s interest in this Lease shall be mortgaged
to a leasehold mortgagee(s), the parties agree for the benefit of such leasehold
mortgagee(s), that they shall not surrender or accept a surrender of this Lease or any part of
it, nor shall they cancel, abridge or othenvise modify this Lease or accept material
prepayments of installments of Rent to become due without the prior written consent of
such mortgagee(s) in each instance.
(i) Reference in this Lease to acquisition of the Initial Lessee's interests in
this Lease by the leasehold mortgagee(s) shall be deemed to refer, where circumstances
require, to acquisition of the Initial Lessee's interest in this Lease by any purchaser at a sale
of foreclosure by the leasehold mortgagee(s) and provisions applicable to the leasehold
mortgagee(s) in such instance or instances shall also be applicable to any such purchaser(s).
G) SO long as the Initial Lessee's interest in this Lease shall be mortgaged
to a leasehold mortgagee(s), the parties agree for the benefit of such leasehold mortgagee(s)
that the Lessor shall not sell, grant or convey to the Initial Lessee all or any portion of the
Lessor's fee simple title to the Demised Premises without the prior written consent of such
leasehold mortgagee(s). In the event of any such sale, grant or conveyance by the Lessor to
the Initial Lessee, the Lessor and the Lessee agree that no such sale, grant or conveyance
shall create a merger of this Lease into a fee simple title to the Demised Premises. This
subparagraph G) shall not be construed to prevent a sale, grant or conveyance of the
Lessor's fee simple title by the Lessor to any person, firm or corporation other than the
Initial Lessee, its successors, legal representatives and assigns, so long as this Lease is not
terminated.
(k) Reference in this Lease to the Initial Lessee's leasehold mortgagee(s)
shall be deemed to refer where circumstances require to the leasehold mortgagee(s)'s
assignee(s); provided that such assignee(s) shall record proper assignment instruments in
the Public Records of Monroe County, Florida, together with written notice setting forth the
name and address of the assignee(s).
(1) In conjunction and contemporaneously with the sale or transfer of each
Affordable Housing Unit, leasehold mortgagee(s) shall make arrangement to ensure the
release of any and all applicable portions of its (their) mortgagees) on the entire Demised
Premises so as to grant clear title to the Sublessee. The details and release payment
requirements shall remain within the reasonable business discretion of the Initial Lessee
and the leasehold mortgagee(s).
Page 26 of 43
em) Lessor shall be entitled, in the event of any of the foregoing
circumstances or events set forth in this Paragraph 15.01, to elect to deal primarily or
exclusively \.vith a mortgagee whose position is primary or in first order of priority \.vith
respect to foreclosable interests or rights according to the laws of the State of Florida or as
contractually agreed by and among multiple mortgagees, where there are such.
Section 1~.02 Permitted Mortgages for Sublessees (Unit Owners). The Lessee shall
incorporate the following into its sublease: The individual Affordable Housing Unit
Owners/Sublessees shall have the right to encumber by mortgage their interests in any
Sublease, improvements or any associated portions of the Demised Prelnises related to their
interests in the individual Affordable Housing Units to a State approved home loan
program, mortgages held by Lessee, Federal or State Savings Loan Association, Bank, Trust
Company or similar lending institution, subject to the following requirements:
(a) The mortgagees) encumbering the Affordable Housing Unit shall not
exceed 100% of the maximum allowable sale price of the Affordable Housing Unit as set
forth in the Affordable Restrictions;
(b) Sub lessees shall not be entitled to mortgage their respective leasehold
interests in the event the terms of the note, which is secured by the mortgage, may result in
negative amortization, unless otherwise approved by Lessor;
(c) In the event of foreclosure sale by a Sublessee's mortgagee or the
delivery of an assignment or other conveyance to a Sublessee's mortgagee in lieu of
foreclosure with respect to any real property subject to the provisions of this Lease, said
mortgagee, or the purchaser at foreclosure, shall comply with the provisions of Article XII.
No sale of any Affordable Housing Unit shall be permitted at an amount in excess of that
allowed under the Affordable Restrictions and shall otherwise fully comply with all
applicable Affordable Restrictions. Any Affordable Housing Unit accepted in lieu of
foreclosure or as to which a mortgagee intends to foreclose shall be subject to the Lessor's
right of first refusal as set forth in Article 12.05. Nothing herein shall preclude potential
purchasers approved by Lessor from bidding at any foreclosure sale and, where successful,
purchasing the subject Affordable Housing Unit at the foreclosure sale price in accordance
with Article XII; and
BALANCE OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFI' BLANK
Page 27 of 43
(d) The parties recognize that it would be contrary to the fundamental
affordable housing concept of this Lease and an incentive to abuse Sublessee's authorization
to encumber its leasehold interest ,,,,ith a mortgage if Sublessee could realize more in loan or
sale proceeds than their permitted purchase or resale price as a result of any transaction.
Accordingly, Sublessee hereby irrevocably assigns to Lessee any and all net proceeds from
the sale of any interest in the Demised Premises remaining after payment of costs of
foreclosure and satisfaction of the lien of any mortgage which would have otherwise been
payable to Sublessee, to the extent such net proceeds exceed the net proceeds that Sublessee
would have received had the interests been sold pursuant to the Affordable Restrictions.
Sublessee hereby authorizes and instructs the mortgagee or any party conducting the
closing of a sale or through an unauthorized transfer to pay the amount of said excess
directly to Lesse. In the event, for any reason, such excess proceeds are paid to Sublessee,
Sublessee hereby agrees to promptly pay the amount of such excess to Lessee.
ARTICLE XVI
Default
Section 16.01 Notice of Default. Lessee shall not be deemed to be in default under
this Lease in the payment of Rent or the payment of any other monies as herein required
unless Lessor shall first give to Lessee and any mortgagees ten (10) days written notice of
such default and Lessee or any other party on its behalf fails to cure such default within ten
(10) days of verifiable receipt of said notice.
Except as to the provisions or events referred to in the preceding paragraph of this
Section, Lessee and Mortagees shall not be deemed to be in default under this Lease unless
Lessor shall first give to Lessee and Mortagees thirty (go) days written notice of such
default, and Lessee fails to cure such default within the immediate thirty (30) day period
thereafter, or, if the default is of such a nature that it cannot be cured within thirty (30)
days, Lessee fails to commence to cure such default within such period of thirty (go) days or
fails thereafter to proceed to the curing of such default with all possible diligence.
Mortgagees shall be entitled to cure Lessee defaults on the same terms and conditions as
the Lessee.
Regardless of the notice and cure periods provided herein, in the event that more
rapid action is required to preserve any right or interest of the Lessor in the Demised
Premises due to any detrimental event or occurrence (such as, but not limited to, payment
of insurance premiums, actions to prevent construction or judgment lien foreclosures or tax
sales), then the Lessor is empowered to take such action and to request reimbursement or
restoration from the Lessee as appropriate.
Section 16.02 Default. In the event of any material breach of this Lease by Lessee,
Lessor, and after the necessary notice and cure opportunity provided to Initial Lessee and
other parties, in addition to the other rights or remedies it may have, shall have the
immediate right to terminate this Lease according to law. In any action by Lessor asserting
a violation of the Affordable Restrictions, Lessee shall have the burden of proof with respect
to such matter. Termination of the Lease, under such circumstances, shall constitute
Page 28 of 43
effective, full and hllmediate conveyance and assignment to Lessor of all of the Demised
Premises, improvements and materials and redevelopment rights to and associated with the
Demised Premises and the Project, subject to mortgagee protection as provided herein.
Furthermore, in the event of any breach of this Lease by Lessee, Lessor, in addition to the
other rights or remedies it may have, shall have the immediate right of re-entry (as may be
la\vfully conditioned per application of Chapter 83, Florida Statutes, as alnended) and may
remove all persons and personal property fronl the affected portions of the Demised
Premises. Such property may be removed and stored in a public warehouse or elsewhere at
the cost of and for the account of Lessee, or where statutory abandonment or unclaimed
property law permits, disposed of in any reasonable manner by Lessor without liability or
any accounting therefore.
Included in this right of reentry, and subject to Initial Lessee's rights, if any, shall be
any instance wherein a Sublessee renounces the Lease or a Sublease or abandons all or any
portion of the Demised Premises, in which case Lessor may, at its option, in an appropriate
case and subject to any rights of a mortgage holder, obtain possession of the abandoned
property in any manner allowed or provided by law, and may, at its option, re-let the
repossessed property for the whole or any part of the then unexpired term, receive and
collect all Rent payable by virtue of such reletting, and hold Sublessee liable for any
difference between the Rent that would have been payable under this Lease and the net
Rent for such period realized by Lessor, by means of such reletting. However, such Lessor
rights shall not abrogate a mortgagee's rights to the extent those rights do not conflict with
or injure Lessor's interests as established under this Lease. Personal property left on the
premises by a Sublessee may be stored, sold, or disposed of by Lessor, and Lessor accepts
no responsibility other than that imposed by law.
Should Lessor elect to re-enter, as herein provided, or should Lessor take possession
pursuant to legal proceedings or pursuant to any notice provided for by law, Lessor may
either terminate this Lease or it may from time to time, without terminating this Lease, re-
let the Demised Premises or any part thereof for such term or terms (which may be for a
term extending beyond the Term of this Lease) and at such Rent or Rents and on such other
terms and conditions as Lessor in its sole reasonable discretion may deem advisable with
the right to make alterations and repairs to the Demised Premises. On each such re-Ietting
Lessee shall be immediately liable to pay to Lessor, in addition to any indebtedness other
than Rent due under this Lease, the expenses of such re-Ietting and of such alterations and
repairs, incurred by Lessor, and the amount, if any, by which the Rent reserved in this Lease
for the period of such re-Ietting (up to but not beyond the term of this Lease) exceeds the
amount agreed to be paid as Rent for the Demised Premises for such period of such
re-Ietting.
Notwithstanding any such re-Ietting without termination, Lessor may at any time
thereafter elect to terminate this Lease for such previous breach. Should Lessor at any time
terminate this Lease for any breach, in addition to any other remedy it may have, Lessor
may recover from Lessee all damages incurred by reason of such breach, including the cost
of recovering the Demised Premises, which amounts shall be immediately due and payable
from Lessee to Lessor.

Section 16.03 Lessor's Right to Perform. In the event that Lessee, by failing or
neglecting to do or perform any act or thing herein provided by it to be done or performed,
shall be in default under this Lease and such failure shall continue for a period of thirty (30)
days after receipt of written notice from Lessor specifying the nature of the act or thing to
be done or performed, then Lessor may, but shall not be required to, do or perfornl or cause
to be done or performed such act or thing (entering on the Demised Premises for such

any way responsible for any loss, inconvenience or annoyance resulting to Lessee on
account thereof, and Lessee shall repay to Lessor on demand the entire expense thereof,
including compensation to the agents and employees of Lessor. Any act or thing done by
Lessor pursuant to the provisions of this section shall not be construed as a waiver of any
such default by Lessee, or as a waiver of any covenant, term or condition herein contained
or the performance thereof, or of any other right or remedy of Lessor, hereunder or
otherwise. All amounts payable by Lessee to Lessor under any of the provisions of this
Lease, if not paid when the amounts become due as provided in this Lease, shall bear

comply with the Affordable Restrictions at any given time or any portion of the Demised
Premises is. used for purposes other than affordable housing by an interest holder of such
portion, as they pertain to their respective interests in or portions of the Demised Premises,
such an occurrence will be considered a material default by the offending party. Should the
foregoing type of use default occur with respect to only one or more subtenants' portiones)
of the Demised Premises, then the default termination provisions provided for in this
subsection, shall apply only to those subtenant(s) and sublease(s) in default. In the
foregoing event, Lessor (or the Initial Lessee (or its assigns) in the event of and with respect
only to a default by a particular Sublessee) may terminate the subleases and tenancies
involved, as the case may be, subject to Lessor's compliance with any applicable default
notice provisions provided elsewhere in this Lease and Lessee's and Mortgagees applicable
cure rights, if any. Lessee hereby agrees that all occupants shall use the Leased Premises
